02 · Why it moved
Why the quarter looked the way it did
What drove margins
The company has not taken price hikes in the household cooler segment yet, but has implemented 7% to 10% price hikes in other segments.
Due to elevated raw material costs (such as plastic) driven by geopolitical conflicts, management expects short-term margin pressure as price pass-throughs will be partial in anticipation of cost normalization.
03 · Demand, customers & order book
Where demand is coming from
All different segments of modern trade (including e-commerce, D2C, large format stores, and large regional stores) grew in excess of 100% in India, constituting in excess of one-third of top-line revenue.
Bonaire USA sells predominantly to major US home care retailers The Home Depot and Lowe's, with products shipped mostly from India and some from Mexico.
All different segments of modern trade grew in excess of 100%, constituting almost or in excess of 1/3rd of the top line in India, while general trade constitutes 60%-65%.
Demand for air coolers was somewhat patchy in Q1, particularly in North India and East India, due to uneven weather patterns.
04 · Segments, products & geography
Which parts of the business are doing the work
Geography and market mix
Air coolers in the US are not viewed as poor-man alternatives but as portable, plug-and-play outdoor and garage cooling solutions or whole-house ducted systems well-suited for the dry Southwest climate.
Growth in the US was driven by major customers Home Depot and Lowe's, featuring rebranded Indian SKUs led by the 'Air Force' model and aided by a hot summer in the Southwest.
Beyond India Summer Products (BISP) accounted for ₹179 crore on a standalone TTM basis (23% of top line) and about 48% on a consolidated trailing 12 months basis, reflecting strategic diversification away from Indian summer dependency.
05 · Capacity, projects & execution
What is being built, commissioned or delivered
Capacity, production and utilisation

06 · Reported developments
What changed operationally
Gross margin percentage increased marginally to 49.8% despite headwinds, geopolitical situations, commodity price pressures, and inventory overhang from the bad summer of 2025.
Bonaire USA revenue grew by 35% with robust profitability driven by successful scale-up of new air cooler SKUs like the Air Force model, while GSK China revenue grew by 43% with operating leverage lifting profitability and achieving complete debt-free status.
BISP sales constituted about ₹560 crore on a consolidated basis in the trailing 12 months (almost 48%), reinforcing strategic derisking and diversification away from reliance on the Indian summer.

CTPL Australia revenue continues to soften, though management confirmed no further capital allocation will be made and impairment/write-offs are fully behind them from FY26.
IMPCO Mexico faced consecutive mild summers in 2025 and 2026, marking an unprecedented occurrence in over 30 years and impacting sales.
IMPCO Mexico and CTPL Australia remained relatively weak, with Mexico impacted by two consecutive mild summers and Australia continuing to soften.
